  • Species:

The Drosophila immigrans species group is a polyphyletic and speciose lineage of Drosophila flies, including over 100 species.[1][2] Immigrans species belong to the Immigrans-tripunctata radiation of the subgenus Drosophila. Well-described species include Drosophila immigrans, and the sister species Drosophila albomicans and . The genome of D. albomicans was sequenced in 2012 in an effort to characterize novel sex chromosome development in D. albomicans.[3] Immigrans group species are related to mushroom-breeding Drosophila of the Quinaria and Testacea species groups.[2][4]

Subgroups[]

The Immigrans species group can be further divided into four subgroups:[2]

  • Immigrans subgroup: includes D. immigrans
  • Nasuta subgroup: includes D. albomicans and
  • Hypocausta subgroup
  • Quadrilineata subgroup
